We know how to create eye-catching and engaging playgrounds for public spaces.
We’ve won awards for our playground design for public spaces thanks to our unique approach to creative playscapes.
We know that playgrounds for public, unmanaged spaces need to be safe, engaging, robust and serve their communities.
We’re experienced in creating bespoke, original, sustainable playgrounds that provide rich, creative, engaging play for youngsters and we back that play design experience with end-to-end service designing, manufacturing and installing your playground, making it as simple as possible.
Our playgrounds are special and people travel to see them, perfect for public spaces aimed at driving traffic to town centres.
We know that you don’t want an ‘everyday play space’. TouchWood playgrounds are special. We know how to make things unique. Beautiful. Memorable. Instagram-worthy. Something to talk about.
Nothing is off the shelf. We constantly innovate, creating new and special features that will make your play equipment unique.
Our focus is on the natural play. Contact with the wood, water, and sand. Touch. Feel. Explore. Dare. Experiment.
Working with us, you know you are also investing in a sustainable product and supporting creativity, craftsmanship and using natural materials that are mostly sourced in the UK.

We have loads of experience creating playgrounds for every budget.
Whether you need to get your funding and want an idea of cost, or you have funding and need to get as much play value into a space as possible for that budget, we know how to help you.
Our approach is unique. We design each project from scratch in close collaboration with each client, and often with the active input of children and your community members.
We want to understand what you want to achieve, what kind of play you want to encourage, your commercial objectives and the personality and subtleties of your project environment.
We use locally-sourced durable woods including Robinia, larch, chestnut and oak for our playgrounds.
At TouchWood, we’re dedicated to ensuring your playground remains a safe and enjoyable environment for all. Upon completion of installation, we provide you with a detailed inspection and maintenance manual. This manual includes checklists based on our guidelines, enabling you to create your own inspection and maintenance plan. We also offer a comprehensive aftercare service designed to support you in maintaining the longevity and safety of your play area.
